M.I.A. just dont do it.

of course coldplay are the new U2, safe anthems for the masses.  the difference is that U2 didn't start out sucking, that began with the Unforgettable Fire or more precisely the Live at Red Rock show where Bono became a rock star instead of a singer in a great band.  Sorry U2 fans I just don't think Joshua Tree stands up against War and they became a singles bands with a "spectacular" stage show with the release of Achtung Baby.

well said. it's impossible to compare coldplay to U2 in that, by the same time in their career as coldplay is now, U2 already had war and boy under their belt. no contest.

can we talk more about how MIA sucks and less about bands everybody knows suck, thanks

[kosmo vinyl]

well i can't comment on the suckage of M.I.A. haven't heard anything in order to base an opinion.  but sligthly on topic LCD Soundsystem doesn't suck.

[sonickteam2]

LCD Soundsystem does NOT suck, you are right.  a breath of fresh air in a world of music confused on whether its rock music or dance music, or heaven forbid, "mashups".

[J'Mal]

MIA sucks, and LCD Soundsystem have a cool name but they suck, too.  It will be a suckfest.

Well, it's too bad I'll be out of town for the MIA show b/c it sounds like I'd be one of the only people there and wouldn't have to deal with all the jerks talking behind me for once.
